California has moved to tighten its rules on vehicle modifications, including an exhaust noise law so strict that some owners with factory systems have reportedly been cited. The crackdown has sparked plenty of discussion among car enthusiasts. One incident involved an officer pulling over a tourist’s car for an alleged exhaust violation.
Opinions on the regulations vary widely, with some supporting noise limits and others viewing them as overly aggressive. Being cited while visiting can be a frustrating experience for travelers unfamiliar with local laws. The situation highlights the broader tension between modification culture and the rules governing vehicle noise in the state.
